I'm never disappointed when I visit Abbiocco. My favorite…read moredish is their chicken Abbiocco. I recently tried their Tuesday night special 2 for $50. You will not be disappointed in the selection or the portion. Needed to take home a portion of both meals. The service is top notch. Servers are very attentive. She doesn't make a bad specialty lush. However, the special last night was chocolate chip cookie dough lush and it was over the top delicious. Love the BYOB option. Comfortable, clean, linen tabletop dinning. If you're lucky enough to grab the corner table, better yet. Fun place, fine food. Never disappoints.

Service is above average, and the coffee cup is never empty long, which is rule one of the diner game. Waitresses named "Jesse" and "Diane" were asked how many work shoes they went through in a year, they looked at each other and simultaneously said "5". That pretty much tells you all ya need to know. Place was recommended to me by a friend, so I'm paying it forward...enjoy.

The space is huge, and even when it's packed with folks on a weekend, the service and quality don't change. It can get a little crazy on the weekends and they don't take reservations.

They were simply cubed potatoes with no seasoning, peppers or onions--just bland and barely browned, as the pictures show. The eggs were decent, as you can't go wrong there, and the bacon was good. However, the sausage was unexpected; it was regular Italian sausage offered in hot or sweet, which felt out of place for a breakfast spot. When you order eggs with sausage you expect breakfast sausage especially on a Sunday morning at 10:45 am! My biggest concern was the wait time. Despite the busy atmosphere, it took nearly an hour and a half for our meals to arrive. That's quite unacceptable for a small establishment unless there's a valid reason. After reading several other reviews, it seems this is a recurring issue. Unfortunately, I don't plan on returning. The two stars are for the large pancake and the friendly waitress. By the way, CASH ONLY!!

We had to eat and decided to give this place a try. Nice, comfortable place with friendly staff. As you are waiting to be seated, you are tempted by a cold case with lots of homemade sweet goodies. I was hungry and wanted to try everything. Hubby wasn't that hungry, but he still ordered something. We started with a mixed munchies plate. This came with chicken strips, fried mozzarella sticks, and pierogies, with a side of marinara sauce. They had four daily soups. They all sounded really good. I had chicken and orzo, and my husband had cream of chicken (I think). The soups were amazing. It had big chunks of white meat chicken. I really wanted some beer-battered fish and chips. I was told the regular cod fish and chips were not beer-battered, and only the haddock was beer-battered. I opted for the haddock with French fries and corn. Hubby ordered Philly cheesesteak flatbread. The mixed munchies were good. I don't think I have had deep-fried pierogies. I think I prefer the steamed ones. But these had a good flavor. The haddock was huge. I sent a picture to my kids, and they commented that only the head and tail were missing. . . lol. . . I hardly ate any fries, but hubby said they were crispy, hot, and tasty. Hubby got his flatbread to go, and we ordered a strawberry shortbread cake to go. We had some of the cake as a late-night snack. It was okay, but I don't think I would get it again. I was thankful that hubby wasn't being "tight" today. I didn't even have to ask him to be generous with a tip. He said, "It's Mother's Day, and she's working". Sorry, forgot to snap a pick of the philly and the cake.

I've eaten here on three (3) separate occasions and tried the chicken fettuccine Alfredo, another…read moreAlfredo dish, and the homemade gnocchi. Unfortunately, none of the experiences were good. Each time, the food was disappointing. We always ordered takeout, and the noodles were consistently stuck together and kind of runny. The gnocchi was especially unpleasant, the sauce tasted sour and off, which completely ruined it. Comparing the sizes of the gnocchi as well, you can go somewhere else and get bigger pieces for the same price or less. While the pricing is pretty standard for similar places, the quality just doesn't justify it. The food simply doesn't taste good. I don't plan on coming back again, especially if I am looking for a genuinely good pasta dish.

Marianacci's. It was a Friday night . I walked into the bar... it was wide open. Was happy for that as I'm by myself and like eating at the bar. I went to sit down and was told it was reserved. Never actually have come across every seat at the bar reserved. But bartender was kind enough to say as long as I'm out by 7:30.. j vouch c take up a spot. So I did. Ordered a wine and the cannelloni. Dear God ... it was absolutely incredible. Honestly the portion... huge. Came with a salad. Perfect. Ordered a half tray to go... as I had a refrigerator in my hotel room. Fyi... enjoyed it the whole weekend! Can't wait to return.
